Very well, then give her a dose of Pennypacker, and the old Keystone will be worse than Philip's wife's mother who laid lay sick of a fever. By bribery, with the knowledge of Pennypacker, unblushing a was elected last winter to represent this | great common wealth at Washington, And cousin Pennypacker announces, “Pena. sylyania has no ills worth mentioning.” The notorious ripper bills were put through the last notice, and sigred the next minute at legislature midnight, behind closed doors by Gov. ernor Stone. And cousin Penoypacker says, "Pennsylvania has no ills worth mentioning.’ The last machine legislature gave to a score of rotten politicians all the valuable | franchises for trolly and other purposes, over the entire state. These franchises would have been worth to the state many millions of dollars, gladly purchased by capitalists. All this was stolen by legis lative enactment. And cousin Penny. packer says, "Pennsylvania has no ills worth mentioning.”’ The school funds of the city of Phila. delphia were withheld from the army of male and female teachers of that city for many mouths, also of a number of coun- | ties in the state including Centre, amount ing to several hundred thousand dollars, aud the money used for purposes of speculation by machine politicians. This was done right under the nose of Penny. packer and to his perfect knowledge. Yet Pennypacker declares, vania has vo 1lls worthy Bah! “Pennsyl- of mention." Dishonest elections, ing, and fraudulent ballot box stuff registration were practiced to such an alarming extent in this state tbat the people with one accord demanded ballot reform; and to still this | cry Quay, from the platform of the Al | toona convention in 1895, on down to the , I ! platform of his last year's convention promised most sacredly that his legisia- ture should give the people the demand. ed ballot reform, yet down to last win- ter's session every pledge was broken, and in the face of these broken promises, cousin Pennypacker writes ‘‘Pennsyl. vania bas no ills worth mentioging.” A plot was laid by the machine in the last legislature to give away, for a few dollars, all the valuable coal beds in the state, under the beds of the rivers, toa knot of corrupt politicians. The in. famous plot was discovered by a mem- ber of the House and exposed, and this alone prevented the consummation of the great wrong. These coal beds are esti mated to be worth fifty million dollars. If these scamps bad not been halted in this astounding attempt at theft, they would now be skinning the consumers of coal by putting up the price. And covsin Pennypacker says, ‘Pennsylvania has no {lls worth mentioning.” * p———— Tue Harrisburg “Patriot,” the only morning paper at the State Capital, has been sold to Mayor Vance McCormick. Darwin 'G, Fenno, formerly of the Phila. delphia "Times," is the new editor. The Patriot, for some years has not sized up to the opportunity. Its publishers al. ways bad a persoval political axe to grind and it was continually voleing face tional strife in the organization. Under the past management it was a spite or. gan, in a minority party. We hope that under the new publisher we will have a strong dignified organ at the Capital City. Buch a paper will receive hearty support as soon as it merits confidence, Tux Republican senatorial conference ~~ of the 34th district, embracing the coun. ties of Clearfield, Clinton and Centre, will be held at Tyrone, August 14. up | SENATORIAL CONFERENCE, The Democratic Senatorial Conference for this district, comprising the counties of Centre, Clinton and Clearfield, will meet at Bellefonte, Thursday, August 14th. Their duties will be soon cousum- mated as there is but one candidate in the district, Hon. Wm, C. Heinle, of Bellefonte, who will be nominated. All the counties have instructed for him, as he merits a return for the splendid re: cord he made in the recent session : The following clippings made the past week show the high estimate placed upon Mr, Heinle's Senatorial career: RE-ELECT SENATOR HEINLE. From the Harrisburg Star Independent: The renomination of State Senator William C. Heinle, of Bellefonte, by the Democrats of the Thirty.fourth Senatori. al district is the cause of popular con- gratulation throughout the state. Itis a fit reward for splendid past service and a practical guarantee of not only capa- ble but honest representation of the dis. trict in the Senate for avother term. During the last two sessions of the Legis. lature Senator Heinle was among the most earnest guardians of the interest of the peopie in the body in which he be- came, during the last session, knowledged leader. It is not alone becaunge Senator Heinle was scrupulously honest that his return to the Senate is a matter for rejoicing That is a negative virtue which all pub- lic officials are expected to possess and though the temptations to become vena) were unusually common and strong dur- ing the period of his service, resistance ought vot to attract especial attention. But Senator Heinle was more than that, He was capable and vigilant as well honest, and an active foe as an ace as f corruption as earnest champion of the He only saw well an cause of the people pot senator | without | corruption behind its mask, but attacked | it wherever and whenever it appeared. There will be a determined effort made to defeat Senator Heinle's re-election, it | is said, for the machine cherishes up re seotments and his work during the last session is remembered against him. But if the people of the district | themselves he will are just to be re-elected by an increased majority. The defeat of a pub. lic official for no other reason than that he was faithful to his obligations would | cast an aspersion on the people responsi | ble for it and if Senator Heinle is defeat- ed it will be for no other reason. From Philadelphia Record, A ugust 2nd “The revomination of State Senator | Heinle, of Centre county, in the Thirty fourth district, is a proper tribute of ap- | Preciation for capable public service. { No other man in the late Legislature was ia more steadfast and determined op- : ponent of the rascally plundering which | was sanctioned by that infamous body. It is estimated that no pains or expense | will be spared by the unscrupulous Quay leadership which seeks to choose a new legislature of the same pattern as the last to defeat Senator Heinle. He is | recoguized as an indefatigable opponent "of corrupt ‘egisiation. The comity of the Machine should prove a source of strength rather than weakness amoung the honest voters of the interior, There is no flaw record.” leaders in Senator Heinle's - PENNYPACKER tried to get elected to the Legislature in a district in 1882 that had always wobbled and in a year when it should bave wobbled to the Re. publican side. He was defeated by over 400 majority by a notorious ward healer. Will his final Waterloo come twenty years later ? PENNVPACKER says that cousin "Quay {18 a grealer statesman than Webster or | Clay.” And be also says, Pennypacker does, thal “Pennsylvania has no ills worth mentioning.” The plain inter. pretation of these sayings is, that Penny- | packer is an out-and out endorser of all the iniquities and disgrace that Quayism has heaped upon this commonwealth. AGAIN were the faithful Dale's suab. bed. Never faltering, never failing in support of the g. 0. p., from the present sons to father and grandfather, along with a large and influential connection, they were unceremoniously ‘Locked’ out and knocked out of Tuesday's '‘har- mony” convention. The youngsters of recent years, now running the machine craft in the county, for another time, bid the Dales go way back and sit down. The new settlers are driving the band wagon, and the old settlers can't get a ride. | — - Tux democrats of Clinton county held their convention on Tuesday and made following nominations : Assembly —W, T.
